Charles Ellicott Commentary Job 22:1

"Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said," — Job 22:1 (ASV)

Then answered Eliphaz. —Eliphaz proceeds to reply in a far more exaggerated and offensive tone than he has adopted until now, accusing Job of definite and specific crimes. He begins by asserting that the judgment of God cannot be other than disinterested, that if, therefore, He rewards or punishes, there cannot be anything personal in it.
